The physical pedal seems to stick when pressure is reduced (slowing or decelerating) but pops free once most of the pressure has been released. This has happened several times in the past year and a half. I did not return it to the dealer, instead I was able to remove the pedal assembly and apply several drops of wd40 to the pivot shaft and bushing. After working the pedal a few times and re-installing back into the vehicle, the pedal seemed to operate normally for up to 4 to 5 months before starting to stick once more. Note: the vehicle never accelerated on its own nor did the pedal not return to the idle position.

2007 Toyota Tundra DC 5. 7l limited. I was driving on the freeway and I went to pass another vehicle when I got into the next lane and another car changed lanes in front of me and I was forced to slam the brakes. The abs system engaged and slowed vehicle down , but the truck felt like it was being pushed forward. . . By this time I had enough room in front of me, so I let off the brakes and the truck jumped like I was holding my foot on the gas. I almost hit the car in front of me again. I slammed on the y brakes again and the abs system kicked in, and the truck was still trying to accelerate, but I held the brake hard enough that I didn't hit the car in front of me. At this point I had to do something. I stuck the truck in neutral and tried to get to the side of the freeway. When I got stopped I had 3 lights on . , brake, vsc, and a picture of a car with 2 crooked lines on it. I believed it was traction control. By now the truck was normal again but the lights were on so I took the truck straight to the dealer .

The throttle position sensor malfunctioned on my 2000 Toyota Tundra. When I took it in to be fixed the part took two weeks to come in because it was on national back order. The reason for this back order was that the part had been redesigned and was not availible yet. This tells me that the part was faulty in the first place.
